- Levo-DOPA/
carbidopa
dose determined by the physician and best avoided because of toxicity. If Levo-DOPA alone would be available, this would be a more judicious choice. - Chloroquine 200-300 mg every 3rd day. The dose and timing should be confirmed by a physician.

Coronet Duo (Red Light) Success?
However, I posed the same question to my Parkinson’s nurse who basically said that approximately five hours after a dose of immediate release
carbidopa
levodopa there is a "wearing off" and there is no further benefit.

Is Carbidopa/Levodopa 8x’s a day to much when you have the DBS?
My setting is on 3.30 left side, 1.00 right side. My doctor seems to give me more medicine instead of turning it up and I feel like it is causing a lot more symptoms.

When to increase dosage of Carbidopa/Levodopa
Neurologist said well you can up your dosage of
Carbidopa
/Levodopa - do you want to do that? We both just looked at him and said no. With that he said see you in 6 months. I certainly could have called office or written a message to the doctor with questions via the portal. 1.

Why did adding carbidopa to mucuna make me sick?
The Barlowe's brown mucuna has never made me nauseous before, so I'm confused as to why adding
carbidopa
would affect me that way. I thought it was supposed to have the opposite effect. Is it possible that I need to decrease the amount of mucuna if I take
carbidopa
with it? Thoughts?

Relief Factor
Any history with customers with PD med's - Generic Name:
carbidopa
and levodopa ( KAR bi DOE pa and LEE voe DOE pa) Brand Name: Rytary, Sinemet, Sinemet CR 3. Potential side effects....I realize the ingredients are natural, the combination could interact with the above medications.

Scheduling meals around taking Carbidopa/Levodopa medication
I have found it challenging to schedule taking my medication: one hour before a meal and two hours after a meal. Recently with my Doctor's approval, I increased my Carbopa/Levodopa 25 dosage from 3 times a day to 4 times a day. The increase has made a difference. I still have difficulty scheduling

This works for me.
I have raised my
carbidopa
levodopa to 1,400mg total a day. I was diagnosed, 2012. Four years ago I was Stage 3 - 4, going down hill fast. THREE years ago I was "blessed" by Doctor Costantini. Presently Stage 1--2.

We need to move more quickly to focused ultrasound (FUS)
About half a century ago, the merrRAdical profession established
carbidopa
/levodopa as the standard treatment for Parkinson’s disease; and it has been so ever since. But replacing dopamine is not a cure, does not always work, and can lose effectiveness over time.

Rytary
My doctor seems to think that I am not tolerating levodopa/
carbidopa
very well and we are thinking about switching. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Started Sinemet and my hair is falling out, switching to mucuna
He's also willing to prescribe
carbidopa
to take with it for nausea. He said he has another patient who has been using mucuna successfully for 15 years. I bought some Barlowe's 40% brown but haven't tried it yet.

example: High Dose Levodopa and Sleep
Restated, this should be the
Carbidopa
/Levodopa dose identified as optimal; the sleep benefit requires a full dose. Another dose may be taken upon awakening in the middle of the night, if necessary to sustain sleep.” Full optimal dose, two 100 mg tablets for a total of 200 mg.
